Plockmatic SquareBack Trimmer

 

Setting Up a Job

Square Back

The  operator  has  the  option  of 
sharpening  or  softening  the  square 
edges  of  the  finished  booklet  based 
on application or preference. 
The Auto mode is on by default but, if 
the Square Back is not satisfactory, the 
user can adjust it manually by tapping on 
the green switch, which will turn the 
Auto mode off. 

  NOTE:

The  printer’s  settings  override  the 
SquareBack  Trimmer  settings, 

therefore,  if  this  function  is  turned 

off on the printer, it will be turned off 
automatically on the SBT.
When turned on on the printer, the SBT 
will apply auto settings again.

T

o  adjust  the  amount  of  Square  Back 

pressure,  press  [+]  for  sharper  edges 
and [-] for softer edges.

Push the green check mark to confirm 
the changes or the red cross to discard 
them and to go back to the main menu. 

To adjust the amount of face trim, press 

[+] or [-] or enter the desired length of 
the booklet using the numeric keypad.

Square Back

 

NOTE:

If the values chosen are out of the paper 

bounds,  the  lengths  will  automatically 
be adjusted to the limit values.

Push the green check mark to confirm the changes or the red cross to discard them and to go 

back to the main menu. Pushing the blue play button will bring the user to the next setting: 
“Square Back”.

NOTE:

If the Square Back does not give satisfactory results, it might need to be Fine Adjusted. To do 

so, see “Square Back Fine Adjustment” under section 5 of this manual.
